thateventuality: Scans - Olivia and George Harrison in California, 1975, photographed by Henry Grossman “[Olivia] and George had talked on the phone many times […] [and] once they met [in the autumn of 1974] they became nearly inseparable. It was a relationship, says one friend, they each expected would work, ‘just an intuition, a thing they felt for each other over the phone. It was almost mystical the way they felt it happening.’” - From a 1977 publication “There was a serene and calming presence that George and Olivia gave off. George had fresh flowers placed in the home and there was incense burning, pictures of holy men, the smell of curried rice dishes - long-grain rice - wafting in from the kitchen. They’re both health food eaters. You know something is going on when they’re around but it isn’t something George shoves down your throat. They are both very thoughtful, and he has a great sense of humor. She is a lovely woman, far from that Hollywood-model type, far too spiritual. The harmony between them is clear and apparent to anyone around them, yet they don’t perform sex in front of you on the floor. They are quite attentive to each other’s needs and well-being and there is genuine caring going between them. It’s quite lovely to see and it has a calming effect on people around them.” - “A friend” on George and Olivia during the time they stayed at a rented home (rented by Ringo and Nancy Lee Andrews, who were away at the time) in the Hollywood Hills in 1976; from a 1977 publication Q: “Was it love at first sight?” Olivia Harrison: “Pretty much. We felt it in our hearts from before we met. Even on the phone, we seemed to have some understanding, like you do when you meet the right person. And he was a charmer, such a charmer!” (The Sun, 12 June 2009) -- source link
